The real war of Troy from Schliemman, it is possible to glimpse the true story of the war. As the archaeologist believed him, sung by Homer facts are real, yes there was a city called Troy, and also a Mycenaean Greek culture.

Discoveries and conclusions of Schliemman on Mycenae left clear that the Mycenaean culture had a business very large and apparently, in continuous expansion. Since their civilization and other Greek peoples continually sailing in the Aegean Sea, marine habitat, with safety due reach a moment where he would like to expand. Many of those people expanded westward, where began the colonization of the peoples of the Italian Peninsula and its islands; others, migrated southwards and conquered the island of Cyprus; others, they went to the East and landed in Asia minor and on the islands of Rhodes and Crete (cradle of the famous Minotaur); and the last, their goals set in the North.
